Senator Eustace Gibson hasintroduced
a bill to strike out of the Revised Statutes
section 1918, forbidding Confederates to
hold or be appointed to any position in
the army OF the United States. 1t was
over an attempt to strike ont this section
that General Malone made his record 10
the celebrated 'rebbes case, in which he
voted with the Republicans against
striking it ont.
! hear that Mr.. Carlisle has asked Mr..
Randall to name one of his tariff friends
for appointment to the Ways and Means
Committee, to which all tariff bills are
referred. This looks more like compro-
mise and concession than irreconcilable
hostility.
The Senate Committee on Post. Offices
has considered the nomination of Don
M. Dickinson for Postmaster General
and approved ii unanimously.

The Cha.sworth disaster.

Later investigation of the Chatswerth
disaster leads to the belief that the
burning of the bridge was the result of
an accident, that it was not set on FIRE
for the sake Of plumber, but that it
caught from burning grass in the Vi
cinity which the section men failed to
extinguish previous to retiring for the
night. 1t is said that the grass was
burning within 100 rods Of the bridge
when the section men LETT. 1t is also
stated that the arst reports OF robber,
les were highly exaggerated. Watches
and rings that we're thought to have
been stolen are being found among the
debris as II Is cleared away.

A PAINT.

We feel that we can render a practical SER
vice to those who contemplate house painting,
whether on old or new work. by calling to their
attention the merits Of the "Pure Prepared
Paint" prepared by Longman e. Martinez, Of
New York, and sold in Yorkville by John G.
Kuykendal. We have used this paint on our
own buildings. with the most gratifying re-
suits, and from our observation since its intro
duction in this market several years ago, we
are fully convinced that it possesses every
merit claimed for it, and that as a durable coat
ing for the protection of wood it is superior to
white lead. When this paint, ready mixed for
use, was first introduced, it met with the OPP
position of some painters who thought they
saw in it a departure of their power as possess
ors of a secret knowledge in the art OF mixing
colors; but so far from injuring them in this
respect, their business has increased as a result
of improved methods, and as their prejudices
have been overcome, theya are but few now who
will advocate the method of painting with
white lead in preference to using the paints of
Lonsman q Martinez. All colors suitable for
house. painting are prepared, ready mixed for
use, and all information desired by those con-
templating painting will be furnished by DR..
Kuykendal, who controls the paint in this mar
ket.

While Chief Engineer Matson admits that the
chartered title of the railroad is too cumber-
some for c%olloquial purposes, he thinks the
term "Three C's'' too tlippant to be applied to
an enterprise of its magnitude and Importance;
and in view of the fine coal and mineral region
through which it runs, he proposes to dub 1t
the magnetic Line,'' which appellation he
trusts will be generally adopted as short, eu-
phonious and appropriate. Col. Matson is
entitled to the privilege of bestowing upon the
road a permanent diminutive name.
The road has just received two new locomo-
tives, weighing 45 tons each, made to order by
the Schenectady locomotive works, and after
the most improved designs. They are named
Rutherford" and "Cleveland' respectively.
The next one will be named "York." 1t has
also received Is new freight cars of 10000
pounds capacity each.
Previous to the reception of the above equip
ment, the company returned for taxation 2
passenger coaches, l baggage car, 2 box cars,
II flat cars, 7 land cars and 9 push cars. The
completed track from Blacks to Rutherfordton
is 43 3-5 miles of main track and one mile OF

State in its debt. But this will not harm

State in its debt. But this will not harm
the State. twill only give room for
another and more reliable taxpayer.
Another matter which seems to me to
be opposed to progressive civilization, is
imprisonment for debt. A man cannot
make money in Jail to pay debts; let him
be where he will havea chance to make it.
It may be said that this is obsolete ex-
cept in cases Of fraud. How is fraud de-
tected without q trial of the accused by
his peers? Therefore, why incarcerate
him for being unfortunate? Besides, II
one is to be tried and imprisoned for fraud,
let the fraud constitute the crime, and
the amount a subject of civil action.
Dickens and other writer's have so forci-
bly, portrayed Fleet Street prison-that
foul blot on English society-that it seems
the lawmakers of the present day would
wipe out similar institutions in horror of
their existence.
Will our Commissioners endeavor to
build a walk way under the railroad bridge
at Nation Ford? The cost would be less
than three hundred dollars.
The chinch bug continues to be a mys-
terry to our farmers, and its d~epredations
proceed. Some say that we need plenty
of rain, so that the corn roots shall be able
to feed both the bug and the plant. Wheth-
er this is authoritative or only speculative,
your present deponent saith not.
The cool winds from northWard are not
very beneficial to cotton, and that plant
would gladly welcome warm sunshine.
